Iago Aspas and Gerard Moreno are under the magnifying glass of Luis Enrique

The calendar. Spain will play against Germany on Thursday, September 3 in Dusseldorf and, three days later, on Sunday, 6, against Ukraine, in our territory, its first two games in the League of Nations. Luis Enrique plans to give the list on the 27th of next month and concentrate the internationals on the 31st, which will leave almost no holidays for the players who play the European competitions during the month of August. This circumstance will provoke compromised situations, since the internationals have both the right to enjoy their vacations and the obligation to attend the calls of the National Team. It is an issue that Luis Rubiales, who was president of the players union (AFE) before RFEF, will have to handle with a silk glove and an iron hand.

The error. Iago Aspas had a confusing start with Luis Enrique. The Celta striker did not appear on the Asturian's first list, but was retaliated for due to the injury of a teammate, Diego Costa. Then, after seeing him train, the coach gave the Galician striker the title in his debut against England, at Wembley. Iago Aspas was one of the best in Spain, and Luis Enrique recognized his mistake. “You get an idea of ​​what to expect and then in training you see them work and you recognize your mistake. That happened to me with Iago Aspas. I am open to continue to be amazed by the players. The benefit of the team is above what the coach thinks, “said the coach then. Now, in the first list of his second period at the helm of the National Team, Luis Enrique will not forget Iago Aspas, who is the second national scorer despite playing in a team that struggles not to descend.

The success. The first selectable gunner is Gerard Moreno, who arrived at the Selection from the hand of Robert Moreno. The season of the striker of Villarreal is being magnificent, and his goalscoring production after the pandemic, simply spectacular. But also it is not just a sweet moment. Gerard Moreno's career is sustained. Last season he also stayed at the top of the scorers table. His is no coincidence. Right now, Gerard Moreno has only the two best LaLiga players ahead of him, Messi and Benzema. His numbers give him all the right to be summoned by Spain.
